Hey Everyone,

 

I've got a small problem and maybe someone here can help.  Google isn't doing the trick.  I work up north in camps where all the internet is sat based.  There is an issue Id like to try and work around.  Most everything up here is blocked except, Facebook, email, etc.  I need a work around / free program so I can get by these port forwarding issues.  Fine I'll just say it, I want to be able to get around said firewall so I can d/l movies etc.  Any ideas?

 

Cheers,

 

Me

yes if... you are willing to hack the campus routers/servers.

 

Your probably being forced to use a proxy server to help control the bandwidth and content. The proxy holds the allow list of sites. I bet port 80 is blocked and all traffic is pass through the proxy. you dont get to talk to much on the outside of the network except that proxy server if I had to guess. 

 

Port 80 is WEB port so if you try and go to www.yousomething.com and it does blocks you.. that is a proxy server because the routher will not contain the allow and disallow list as the proxy server will. If it gets to any site you want then port 80 is not blocked. SMTP Port 25, pop 110 and other related email ports are passed through the proxy but no context list is needed to block. Just the ports are open and are passed through the proxy still you having to pass through the proxy. 

 

but maybe things have changed or i over looked something.... it would be best in my opinion if they have it setup to prevent you from doing things they dont want you too... i would be careful in what you try and do... shit is getting smarter and smarter and if on my network... i would catch you.

 

get a cell phone and teather from it. there is a solution that will work for the first 5gb or so.... lol

The satelite network which is common up north where I am does have bandwith limitations on it for the most part. That is because it services most of the gas/oil fields where I am working.  Could I try to run my computer through a proxy server or set up a VPN or would it still be blocked by the router at the camsite.  I long ago had a trial IP changer program, it worked for a few places but not at the camp I am at now.  Just curious.

Your best bet is to use a proxy site like HXTR suggested. Just do a Google search on proxy server sites

It all depends on what they are using. If they are using stateful packet inspection ports dont matter Yell

I was able to work around it at the one camp I was at.  I had to use my data on my phone to get a proxy site and number. When I tried to google "proxy lists" I got an error message.  But once I got a list, KAPLOW! I was good as gold.  But seeing as I moved camp this point is all but pointless.  Ah well such is life. I am heading home in a few weeks so I can load up my computer there.

 

Cheers for all the help.
